Would you vote me in as your first woman president with Doc as my running mate?

Raymond started the latest battle by sending Doc a personal invitation to come to Austin to see Bohemian Cowboy. This germinted in Doc's mind until he was ready to fly us there at his expense. He acted as though this was the perfectly sane thought of a normal man. I thought it over and found myself making a video with him where I actually beat up this man on camera, for I had realized that Doc was not ready to meet with the big boys at all. Raymond, by opening this play in Los Angeles, taking it to San Francisco, and now Austin, Texas is starting to make his run for national attention. Long time playwright, song writer, actor-singer, he is ready.

Me, I am digging my old plays out of old filing cabinets, polishing them up, getting them ready to go. I found an old fishing play last night. Great comedy, all ready to go on Broadway when some producer decides I deserve a big break. And how is Doc acting? Like a baby who can't give up his pacifier. This man has got to be crazy. He has fallen into a gold mine of talent, and he still thinks he has reason to drink. He is a stubborn old peasant despite his attempts to be a sophisticate. You have to be flexible, on your toes, to run with the big boys. I always tried to inspire my kids to keep doing something until they mastered it. Write plays until you know how to do it. Dance, act, sing until you can entertain the crowd. Keep practicing. Broadway takes energy, consumes energy and demands more. Vision. So your mind has to be clear to stand out. Eat what's good for you. You have to be in the best shape you can be. You reach the stars with plenty of fire power.

Doc is who he is, people don't always see their selves the way we see them. You eye is a more objective eye because you are not carrying around all the stuff inside of you that he is. He on the other hand is weigh down by his stuff so his view on himself, opportunities etc, is not the same.

When I heard those beautiful tones in Docs voice, I thought you had another singer, if you can stop him from sneering at country or any other music and sing. How come the ones who have the beautiful voices are so hard to get to sing. Did you hear the Karoke singer on Ophah who won $500,000 and and a record contract? Maybe broadway will see you soon. I hope so. Never say never.
